2017-05-01netfilter: nf_queue: only call synchronize_net twice if nf_queue is activeFlorian Westphal5-24/+27
nf_unregister_net_hook(s) can avoid a second call to synchronize_net, provided there is no nfqueue active in that net namespace (which is the common case). This also gets rid of the extra arg to nf_queue_nf_hook_drop(), normally this gets called during netns cleanup so no packets should be queued. For the rare case of base chain being unregistered or module removal while nfqueue is in use the extra hiccup due to the packet drops isn't a big deal.

2017-05-01netfilter: nf_log: don't call synchronize_rcu in nf_log_unsetFlorian Westphal2-2/+1
nf_log_unregister() (which is what gets called in the logger backends module exit paths) does a (required, module is removed) synchronize_rcu(). But nf_log_unset() is only called from pernet exit handlers. It doesn't free any memory so there appears to be no need to call synchronize_rcu. v2: Liping Zhang points out that nf_log_unregister() needs to be called after pernet unregister, else rmmod would become unsafe.

2017-05-01netfilter: batch synchronize_net calls during hook unregisterFlorian Westphal1-6/+40
synchronize_net is expensive and slows down netns cleanup a lot. We have two APIs to unregister a hook: nf_unregister_net_hook (which calls synchronize_net()) and nf_unregister_net_hooks (calls nf_unregister_net_hook in a loop) Make nf_unregister_net_hook a wapper around new helper __nf_unregister_net_hook, which unlinks the hook but does not free it. Then, we can call that helper in nf_unregister_net_hooks and then call synchronize_net() only once. Andrey Konovalov reports this change improves syzkaller fuzzing speed at least twice.

2017-04-26netfilter: conntrack: handle initial extension alloc via kreallocFlorian Westphal1-36/+15
krealloc(NULL, ..) is same as kmalloc(), so we can avoid special-casing the initial allocation after the prealloc removal (we had to use ->alloc_len as the initial allocation size). This also means we do not zero the preallocated memory anymore; only offsets[]. Existing code makes sure the new (used) extension space gets zeroed out.

2017-04-26netfilter: conntrack: remove prealloc supportFlorian Westphal3-52/+4
It was used by the nat extension, but since commit 7c9664351980 ("netfilter: move nat hlist_head to nf_conn") its only needed for connections that use MASQUERADE target or a nat helper. Also it seems a lot easier to preallocate a fixed size instead. With default settings, conntrack first adds ecache extension (sysctl defaults to 1), so we get 40(ct extension header) + 24 (ecache) == 64 byte on x86_64 for initial allocation. Followup patches can constify the extension structs and avoid the initial zeroing of the entire extension area.

2017-04-26netfilter: SYNPROXY: Return NF_STOLEN instead of NF_DROP during handshakingGao Feng2-13/+28
Current SYNPROXY codes return NF_DROP during normal TCP handshaking, it is not friendly to caller. Because the nf_hook_slow would treat the NF_DROP as an error, and return -EPERM. As a result, it may cause the top caller think it meets one error. For example, the following codes are from cfv_rx_poll() err = netif_receive_skb(skb); if (unlikely(err)) { ++cfv->ndev->stats.rx_dropped; } else { ++cfv->ndev->stats.rx_packets; cfv->ndev->stats.rx_bytes += skb_len; } When SYNPROXY returns NF_DROP, then netif_receive_skb returns -EPERM. As a result, the cfv driver would treat it as an error, and increase the rx_dropped counter. So use NF_STOLEN instead of NF_DROP now because there is no error happened indeed, and free the skb directly.

2017-04-19netfilter: allow early drop of assured conntracksFlorian Westphal5-0/+102
If insertion of a new conntrack fails because the table is full, the kernel searches the next buckets of the hash slot where the new connection was supposed to be inserted at for an entry that hasn't seen traffic in reply direction (non-assured), if it finds one, that entry is is dropped and the new connection entry is allocated. Allow the conntrack gc worker to also remove *assured* conntracks if resources are low. Do this by querying the l4 tracker, e.g. tcp connections are now dropped if they are no longer established (e.g. in finwait). This could be refined further, e.g. by adding 'soft' established timeout (i.e., a timeout that is only used once we get close to resource exhaustion).

2017-04-19netfilter: nft_ct: allow to set ctnetlink event types of a connectionFlorian Westphal2-1/+26
By default the kernel emits all ctnetlink events for a connection. This allows to select the types of events to generate. This can be used to e.g. only send DESTROY events but no NEW/UPDATE ones and will work even if sysctl net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_events is set to 0. This was already possible via iptables' CT target, but the nft version has the advantage that it can also be used with already-established conntracks. The added nf_ct_is_template() check isn't a bug fix as we only support mark and labels (and unlike ecache the conntrack core doesn't copy those).

2017-04-15netfilter: kill the fake untracked conntrack objectsFlorian Westphal12-97/+39
resurrect an old patch from Pablo Neira to remove the untracked objects. Currently, there are four possible states of an skb wrt. conntrack. 1. No conntrack attached, ct is NULL. 2. Normal (kmem cache allocated) ct attached. 3. a template (kmalloc'd), not in any hash tables at any point in time 4. the 'untracked' conntrack, a percpu nf_conn object, tagged via IPS_UNTRACKED_BIT in ct->status. Untracked is supposed to be identical to case 1. It exists only so users can check -m conntrack --ctstate UNTRACKED vs. -m conntrack --ctstate INVALID e.g. attempts to set connmark on INVALID or UNTRACKED conntracks is supposed to be a no-op. Thus currently we need to check ct == NULL || nf_ct_is_untracked(ct) in a lot of places in order to avoid altering untracked objects. The other consequence of the percpu untracked object is that all -j NOTRACK (and, later, kfree_skb of such skbs) result in an atomic op (inc/dec the untracked conntracks refcount). This adds a new kernel-private ctinfo state, IP_CT_UNTRACKED, to make the distinction instead. The (few) places that care about packet invalid (ct is NULL) vs. packet untracked now need to test ct == NULL vs. ctinfo == IP_CT_UNTRACKED, but all other places can omit the nf_ct_is_untracked() check.

2017-04-15netfilter: ecache: Refine the nf_ct_deliver_cached_eventsGao Feng1-2/+2
1. Remove single !events condition check to deliver the missed event even though there is no new event happened. Consider this case: 1) nf_ct_deliver_cached_events is invoked at the first time, the event is failed to deliver, then the missed is set. 2) nf_ct_deliver_cached_events is invoked again, but there is no any new event happened. The missed event is lost really. It would try to send the missed event again after remove this check. And it is ok if there is no missed event because the latter check !((events | missed) & e->ctmask) could avoid it. 2. Correct the return value check of notify->fcn.

2017-04-05bonding: attempt to better support longer hw addressesJarod Wilson4-68/+108
People are using bonding over Infiniband IPoIB connections, and who knows what else. Infiniband has a hardware address length of 20 octets (INFINIBAND_ALEN), and the network core defines a MAX_ADDR_LEN of 32. Various places in the bonding code are currently hard-wired to 6 octets (ETH_ALEN), such as the 3ad code, which I've left untouched here. Besides, only alb is currently possible on Infiniband links right now anyway, due to commit 1533e7731522, so the alb code is where most of the changes are. One major component of this change is the addition of a bond_hw_addr_copy function that takes a length argument, instead of using ether_addr_copy everywhere that hardware addresses need to be copied about. The other major component of this change is converting the bonding code from using struct sockaddr for address storage to struct sockaddr_storage, as the former has an address storage space of only 14, while the latter is 128 minus a few, which is necessary to support bonding over device with up to MAX_ADDR_LEN octet hardware addresses. Additionally, this probably fixes up some memory corruption issues with the current code, where it's possible to write an infiniband hardware address into a sockaddr declared on the stack. Lightly tested on a dual mlx4 IPoIB setup, which properly shows a 20-octet hardware address now: $ cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0 Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v3.7.1 (April 27, 2011) Bonding Mode: fault-tolerance (active-backup) (fail_over_mac active) Primary Slave: mlx4_ib0 (primary_reselect always) Currently Active Slave: mlx4_ib0 MII Status: up MII Polling Interval (ms): 100 Up Delay (ms): 100 Down Delay (ms): 100 Slave Interface: mlx4_ib0 MII Status: up Speed: Unknown Duplex: Unknown Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: 80:00:02:08:fe:80:00:00:00:00:00:00:e4:1d:2d:03:00:1d:67:01 Slave queue ID: 0 Slave Interface: mlx4_ib1 MII Status: up Speed: Unknown Duplex: Unknown Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: 80:00:02:09:fe:80:00:00:00:00:00:01:e4:1d:2d:03:00:1d:67:02 Slave queue ID: 0 Also tested with a standard 1Gbps NIC bonding setup (with a mix of e1000 and e1000e cards), running LNST's bonding tests.
